Has he met you in person Nick?
My bet is he died of a heart attack when he got your message that the motor took a crap on you.
You might want to reach out to John aka DJ Self.
He sold his LPE turbo C5 and moved on to a 911 turbo.
Let me know if you want me to reach out to him for you.

Talk to either Bill or Bones.
Bones was a porsche tech, I think he used to work @ AWE, and Bill built a couple of pretty sick p-cars.
